Cluster of neurological manifestations of rotavirus infection in children.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Rotavirus infection in children in the resource-rich countries is usually benign but complications are reported rarely. Four children presented within 4 weeks with neurological symptoms and stool virology positive for rotavirus. All four made a quick recovery and were discharged home after a few days without medication. At 6 weeks all were well, with no further neurological episodes. This is the first reported cluster of this nature. Potential mechanisms for how rotavirus causes its rare neurological complications are briefly discussed, along with clinical implications for clinicians managing such patients.
